What Are We Learning 

The Second Grade curriculum is adapted to meet the Core Curriculum   State Standards.  The training and advancement of good work, study, and organizational habits are part of daily routines to encourage a strong foundation for important lifelong habits.

Literacy- Our Literacy program, Wonders, focuses on phonics and decoding skills, word analysis, spelling fluency, comprehension strategies and skills, vocabulary,  and  all elements of writing traits. 

Math- Our Math program, Progress in Math, focuses on addition and subtraction skills, geometry, money, time, data graphs, place value, fractions, probability, measurement and the beginnings of multiplicaton and division.

Religion- Our Religion program, We Believe, helps prepare us for receiving our sacraments, First Penance and First Holy Communion. 

We grow in our understanding of God's love and how God calls us to serve him.  We participate in the celebration of Mass often with our ICS Parish and School communities. 

Science- Our Science program, Science Fusion, focuses on our inquiry skills as we learn to work and think like a scientist, animals, plants, different environments, the Solar System,  weather and states of matter. 

Social Studies- Our program, My World, focuses on learning about our community, our country, the world around us, celebrating our traditions and our nation, past and present. 

We spend time throughout the week working in our STEM lab where students work cooperatively with hands-on challenges. 

Along with these academics, the students receive instruction in various Specials classes. They include Physical Education, Art, Technology, Music, Spanish and Library.
